Seeing Xiao Hong had already picked up the axe, Xiao Yunyu frowned and said, "Leave it there. I'll do it."
Xiao Hong looked at him in surprise, her eyes seemed to ask, "Master, are you sure?"
Xiao Yunyu's deep eyes drifted towards Li Nian.
Li Nian frowned, looking worried: "Xiao Yunyu, why don't you just let Xiaohong split it? If you don't know how to do it, don't force it."
"I can!" Xiao Yunyu took a big step towards Xiaohong, took the axe from his hand, picked up a piece of wood, and banged it with a quick, accurate and fierce sound.
With one blow of the axe, the firewood was split perfectly.
The man who proved his success raised his proud and handsome face, and looked at her with his charming peach blossom eyes.
Li Nian felt that Xiao Yunyu at this moment seemed to be expressing the meaning of "Praise me quickly, praise me quickly".
He couldn't help but feel a little funny and said with a curved lip: "That's amazing."
The man who was praised smiled deeply in his bright peach blossom eyes. He pressed the corners of his lips together and said calmly, "It's just chopping wood. It's a simple thing."
Li Nian looked at the man who was chopping wood more and more diligently, and suddenly she felt uncomfortable. This feeling of training a man like a dog really made her feel uncomfortable.
So I suggested to the system, "How about turning Xiao Yunyu into a real dog? That way I can train him more easily. Once the points pool is full, you can turn him back."
The system ignored her request.
Li Nian continued to talk to himself, "Forget it. We're still counting on him to defend the city and fight. It would be troublesome if he turned into a real dog."
The system suddenly said [You know it too]
Li Nian: [Huh? So you heard it? Just kidding.]
The system...remains silent.
Next, the two best friends had another fun activity, watching the handsome man chop wood.
Seeing the pile of firewood getting higher and higher, one of the men working seemed to find some fun in it, and he stacked the firewood like playing with building blocks, very meticulously.
Finally, the man, whose back was soaked from work, stood up straight, wiped the sweat from his forehead casually, and looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.
Then he turned around and said to Li Nian with a smile: "Niannian, the chopping is done."
Li Nian heard that his tone seemed to indicate he was still a little unsatisfied.
"Why don't you go cook again?" Li Nian said casually.
Upon hearing this, Li Sisi quickly interjected, "A gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. He's a dignified prince, how can we let him cook?"
"If you ask me, when it comes to family life, status isn't the most important thing, but you have to find a man who can handle both housework and the kitchen. Only a man like that is worth entrusting your life to!"
Xiao Yunyu now sensed something was wrong. Was Li Sisi trying to coax Nian Nian and get him to do housework?
He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a low, magnetic voice with a hint of stubbornness: "Isn't it just cooking? It's simple."
He looked at Li Nian and asked, "What would you like to eat, Nian Nian? I'll make it for you."
Li Sisi leaned close to Li Nian's ear and lowered her voice: "Let him make braised pork!" She just didn't believe that the braised pork made by Xiao Yunyu could be better than hers?
"No!" Li Nian's first thought was the braised pork made by Li Sisi.
She looked at Xiao Yunyu: "I just said it casually, don't take it seriously, just let Yu Niang make lunch. You've been sweating, go take a shower."
Xiao Yunyu, however, seemed to be getting more aggressive, with a seductive arc at the corner of his eye, and insisted: "Niannian, what do you want to eat? I can definitely make it."
Li Sisi also encouraged him: "Nian Nian, let him try. Maybe he has extraordinary talent and can master it in one try."
Li Nian looked at Li Sisi and said, "Do you have the same talent as you, that of burning pots to pieces?"
Li Sisi: ...When will Nian Nian forget this?!
If Xiao Yunyu's cooking was worse than hers...
Li Sisi advised seriously: "Why don't you just let him give it a try? He has eaten the food you cooked, but you haven't eaten the food he cooked. It's not fair."
Li Nian was speechless when he saw Xiao Yunyu's eager look on his face.
"Okay then, just make something simple."
Xiao Yunyu said confidently, "Nian Nian, wait for me to cook a large table of delicious dishes for you to taste."
Li Nian looked at his confident expression and replied perfunctorily, "Okay."
After getting Li Nian's affirmation, Xiao Yunyu walked towards the kitchen with confidence.
When Yu Niang saw Xiao Yunyu coming in, she was surprised but immediately lowered her head and said respectfully, "Sir, lunch is not ready yet."
The smile on Xiao Yunyu's face faded a little, and he said coldly, "I will cook lunch myself today, and you can just give me some pointers."
At this moment, Xiao Yunyu's noble and unruly temperament made Yu Niang feel a little more in awe.
He didn't dare to look at him any more, not even to meet his gaze. He lowered his head and replied respectfully, "Yes."
Outside the kitchen, Li Sisi said with a hint of gloating, "Do you think the food Xiao Yunyu will cook soon will be edible?"
Li Nian looked at her angrily. "What are you doing here? He's a rich kid from a wealthy family, and he's never been in the kitchen. If he burns down our kitchen, you'll have to put it out."
"That shouldn't be the case, right? Isn't Yu Niang watching inside?"
As they were talking, the two best friends saw Yu Niang coming out of the kitchen.
Li Sisi hurriedly asked, "Yu Niang, why did you come out?"
Yu Niang, who came out of the kitchen, seemed relieved. When she heard Li Sisi's question, she quickly replied with a smile, "Young Master Xiao said he can be alone and doesn't need me in the kitchen."
When Li Nian heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She even began to imagine the kitchen on fire and them putting out the fire.
She handed Jinhe in her arms to Li Sisi and said quickly, "No, I have to go and take a look."
In the kitchen, Xiao Yunyu was staring at the fish in the pot, occasionally lifting the lid to take a look.
Hearing footsteps, he turned his head and looked towards the kitchen door. Then his eyebrows raised slightly, and his low voice was filled with surprise: "Niannian, why are you here? I can do it alone."
Li Nian hummed softly, but did not refute him. Instead, he walked closer and asked, "What did you do?"
Xiao Yunyu lifted the lid of the pot: "Fish, Yu Niang said you like to drink light fish soup."
Li Nian noticed that his wrist was red and frowned: "Are you burned?"
Xiao Yunyu glanced at the red on his wrist and replied nonchalantly, "It's nothing, just a minor injury."
"If you don't deal with it, it will be troublesome when blisters form." Li Nian pulled him to the water tank, scooped a basin of cold water, and put his hand in it.
Xiao Yunyu lowered his head and stared at the concerned expression on her face. The cold fragrance of plum blossoms mixed with the unique scent on her body invaded his nostrils, making him stunned for a moment.
It was as if he was back to the days when they were in love, even though he knew that his wife was just lying to him and looking for an opportunity to get rid of him.
But he truly felt the goodness of his wife. Every expression of his wife, even when she glared at him in shame or tickled him, made his heart beat faster.
Xiao Yunyu's eyes fell on her lips as she opened and closed them, and he heard her whisper, "I have some burn medicine in my room. Soak in cold water here first, and I'll go get the medicine."
He suppressed his pounding heart and his Adam's apple rolled up and down.
I don’t want to apply medicine, I just want to kiss, I really want to kiss my wife, I want to hug her, what should I do?
